how would you save her?

if she was drowning
i would tell the lifeguard
to go and get me a boat
and save her

if she was choking
i would press her stomach in
and make what's in her stomach
come out

if she was sad
i would tell funny jokes
to make her happy

if she was doing bad things
i would tell her to stop
look and listen to me
and look at what she is doing

if she thought she was ugly
i would tell her she was not ugly
she is beautiful

if i were her
i would put my head up
and say
i am beautiful
not ugly
intelligent
and great
and smart
